Pros

Very customer-focused. Top leadership is extremely strong, perhaps the best in the industry. Opportunities for rapid promotion in title. Highly technical and data driven environment. Very little politics. Nice profit-sharing program.

Cons

Lam does not have enough employees, so the workload per employee is very high. Long work hours--including frequent weekends--are the norm. For some employees, frequent and unpredictable travel.

Pros

Decent salary, excellent benefits, nominal growth potential. Requesting time off is very easy, and the people are very smart.

Cons

Management is a bit top heavy and promotions are almost only time-based, less merit. At times work can get out of control and time in the clean-room is limited causing even more frustration.
